Step into the bold and vibrant world of modern Greek cooking at Grovestone.
In this culinary instruction and tasting, we reimagine classic dishes with fresh,
seasonal ingredients and unexpected pairings. With our chef at the helm,
you’ll discover the textures, flavors, and techniques that make Greek cuisine so beloved.
Throughout the evening, we also highlight the heart of every great recipe: the ingredients.
You’ll learn how our olive oils, balsamics, spices, and seasonings are hand-crafted,
how they’re made, and why their purity and quality elevate even the simplest dishes.
Understanding ingredients is the secret to cooking beautifully and we love sharing that passion with our guests.
Sit back, sip, and enjoy as we bring each dish to life in front of you,
sharing culinary techniques, ingredient stories, and modern Greek inspiration along the way.
Great for date night or girls night out!
Just sit back, eat, drink and socialize while we do all the work!
